My favorite is anyone who trusts me enough to send me their picture for the photo page... hehe. So, I guess the rest of you better get crackin' if you're not on that list... not that it needs to be a goal in life to be one of my favorites.

Eek. *TGWBS is put on the spot*

Let's see. Fea, or Enca, or Eomer. Whichever happens to be reading this, actually. I can't really choose between them, because almost every post of theirs makes me collapse in hysterics.

Hmmm. I know Eomer and Fea have fanclubs... where's Enca's?

Ahem. The rest of you are great too. I merely have a tendency to get attached to people who make me laugh.

My current favorite is TOREstel. It's that WWJ game. I just can't get over how well and [almost] seemlessly he accepted my big fat lie and pretended it was true.

I also ♥ The Barrow-Wight.

I'd join! I'm a member of all existing fanclubs. Cause I love everyone. Except the trolls, they're annoying.

I've decided that my favorite member right now is the phantom. His Tol-in-Gaurhoth XII Ebar Telemarth narrations are killing me!
He says the role of who died, or he gives a drawn out Sauron narrative, but he just draaaaaaaaaaaaaaags out the revelation of the name until as late as he can. And you know what? It works. Half of the time I sit around refreshing waiting to see what he wrote next, or waiting to post.

Blast you, oh current favorite, for trying my patience so.

Well, just to name a quick few:

Fea - She just might be the craziest person on the 'Downs, and not an insane crazy, an I'll-do-anything-if-I-have-even-the-slightest-most-illogical-reason crazy. It's a good thing.

Saucepan - I've got to respect the one who pulled it out in the end and bested the Bear. He's just brilliant.

Phantom - His Werewolf narration is some of the most exciting writing I've seen in quite a while. And, besides, everybody loves his egotism.

Sleepy Ranger - Star Wars Fan!

Durelin - [Same as Sleepy Ranger]

"I think I scared them all away... " ~Encaitare

You can only scare away normal people...Each of my friends is at least as strange as you so you can't do anything to scare me. Next to Abercrombie (whom I knew before joining) you were probably the first person I felt inclined to like...now you're the first of many...

Holbytlass and Kath I count as friends...and I feel well disposed towards everyone in Storyland (Werewolf III)...and Littlemanpoet, though I don't know why--he's just cool...

I must say that currently, Eomer of the Rohirrim is my favorite. Not only is he adept at boosting my ego, but he's punctual about it.

I'm in the Enca fanclub. In fact, my birthday wishes to her were cruelly denied by the limited PM box (Happy Birthday, by the way)

I can hardly believe this thread is still open. It's lovely and all but.....y'know.

Gone off topic? Cruel? Hard to decide? Fun? Competitive?

Happy belated birthday to Enca too. I couldn't be bothered to PM you because I knew your inbox was full.

As to what is my favourite, I'd say... all of Mirth, actually. Particularly those threads that remind me of the Ole Mayhem Days.

I remember the Mayhem days... I was but a young corpse, freshly killed and not even yet decayed. At the time, I believe my favorite 'Downers were anybody who posted on threads I made, or acknowledged my existence.

You have simply to state your allegiance to one of them. It is rather more common for females to join Eomer's club, though this is not a requirement.

The fact that i have pledged my loyalty to Hookbill the Goomba, does not interfier with me joining one of them. Does it ?

1420! A toast to all you wonderful people out there!

I love all of you, but there are a few who really stick out in my mind as special.


tgwbs, because he's one of the few people I remember very distinctly from my early days here. We both spent large amouints of time in Mirth, especially the You know you're obsessed with LotR when... thread in late 2003. The thread was full of immature newbies and semi-newbies who had trouble staying on topic, but he seems to be the only one besides myself who has stuck around and matured considerably in the past two years.

Holby, because she has been very helpful and caring through PMs about some family problems I've had. She's just one of those wonderful mom-types who wants to make everybody feel better.

Mith, because she shares my love of Lord Peter Wimsey. Need I say more?

TORE, because all his sports-related captions make me laugh. I still haven't gotten over one he did about Arod being traded to the Rangers by the Rohirrim over a year ago. It's fun to find somebody who makes sports jokes, since none of my RL friends can understand why I like to watch football and basketball (and sometimes baseball) and why on earth I'm addicted to ESPN radio.

Knight of Gondor, because he's so much fun to talk politics with.

And finally, High King Fingolfin, because he's the best little brother anyone could ever ask for and my best friend in the whole world.
